"Despite Microsoft's claims that Vista can run on such trailing-edge systems," writes Matthew Wilkins, principal analyst for compute platforms research, "iSuppli believes the reality is quite different."

I've got a Pentium 2 366mhz / 256 MB ram laptop that I recently installed XP on. It takes forever to do anything on it. Its barely usable once you start loading things like an antivirus program on it.
